Top Ten Distances Covered in the Premier League This Season; Number 9 Will Surprise You

The ten players who have covered the most ground (in metres) this term.

10. Ryan Shawcross (Stoke City): 330,012m

The Stoke skipper is best known for his towering headers and crunching tackles, but he covers plenty of ground.

9. Tom Huddlestone (Hull City): 332,352m

Thud’s doubters should take note. The pass-master is frequently the butt of jokes about bacon sandwiches and turning circles but he clearly works as hard as anyone.

8. Jay Rodriguez (Southampton): 332,569m

The Saints winger will not add to this impressive tally this season after suffering a series knee injury last week.

7. Steven Caulker (Cardiff City): 338,766m

The centre half has been a great signing for Cardiff and will unlikely stay with the club if they go down.

6. Jake Livermore (Hull City): 351,434m

Steve Bruce has turned Spurs loanee Livermore into the complete midfielder. He works harder than anyone in the Tigers’ team.

5. Adam Lallana (Southampton): 358,090m

Classy, skilful and a hard worker: Lallana is likely to be sought by the Premier League’s top clubs this summer.

4. Jordan Henderson (Liverpool): 359,080m

Luis Suarez, DanieL Sturridge and Steven Gerrard have taken the plaudits but Jordan Henderson has every bit as important as the trio. Great season.

3. Steve Sidwell (Fulham): 361,070m

The former Chelsea man has worked his socks off for three different managers this season – but it may not be enough to keep the Cottagers up.

2. Mile Jedinak (Crystal Palace): 365, 319m

The Australian is the only non-British player on this list. He’s been instrumental to Palace’s impressive campaign.

1. Mark Noble (West Ham): 380,927m

The Hammers man officially covers more ground than anyone else in the Premier League. Impressive.
